ramips: fix partitions and boot for RAVPower RP-WD03
The RAVPower RP-WD03 is a battery powered router, with an Ethernet and
USB port. Due due a limitation in the vendor supplied U-Boot bootloader,
we cannot exceed a 1.5 MB kernel size, as is the case with recent builds
(i.e. post v19.07). This breaks both factory and sysupgrade images.
To address this, use the lzma loader (loader-okli) to work around this
limitation.
The improvements here also address the "misplaced" U-Boot environment
partition, which is located between the kernel and rootfs in the stock
image / implementation. This is addressed by making use of mtd-concat,
maximizing space available in the booted image.
This will make sysupgrade from earlier versions impossible.
Changes are based on the recently supported HooToo HT-TM05, as the
hardware is almost identical (except for RAM size) and is from the same
vendor (SunValley). While at it, also change the SPI frequency
accordingly.
Installation:
- Download the needed OpenWrt install files, place them in the root
of a clean TFTP server running on your computer. Rename the files as,
- openwrt-ramips-mt7620-ravpower_rp-wd03-squashfs-kernel.bin => kernel
- openwrt-ramips-mt7620-ravpower_rp-wd03-squashfs-rootfs.bin => rootfs
- Plug the router into your computer via Ethernet
- Set your computer to use 10.10.10.254 as its IP address
- With your router shut down, hold down the power button until the first
white LED lights up.
- Push and hold the reset button and release the power button. Continue
holding the reset button for 30 seconds or until it begins searching
for files on your TFTP server, whichever comes first.
- The router (10.10.10.128) will look for your computer at 10.10.10.254
and install the two files. Once it has finished installation, it will
automatically reboot and start up OpenWrt.
- Set your computer to use DHCP for its IP address
Notes:
- U-Boot environment can be modified, u-boot-env is preserved on initial
install or sysupgrade
- mtd-concat functionality is included, to leave a "hole" for u-boot-env,
combining the OEM kernel and rootfs partitions
Most of the changes in this commit are the work of Russell Morris (as
credited below), I only wrapped them up and added compat-version.

base-files: disable LEDs if default state is undefined
Set the default state for LEDs to off. When a trigger is set, the
trigger will turn the LED automatically on.
Currently LEDs might stay on, e.g. when the LED trigger is set to a
netdev trigger and the interface is never activated or the 'none'
trigger is selected without setting the 'default' option to 0 and it's
set for the LED indicating the system running state.
Using off as a default value is also consistent with the documentation
in the OpenWrt wiki.
vconfig is no more installed by default to a firmware image. So, replace
vconfig calls for VLAN subinterface configuration by coresponding
ip-link commands.
Also drop few useless comments from the preinit hook script, while we
are at it.
I have no chance to test this fix since I have no board with a subject
switch IC, but this is still better then call an utility that is
unavailable in the firmware for years.

Since the introduction of fakeroot support, wrapped SDK executables might
be invoked from a shell that has libfakeroot.so preloaded.
Since we're using preloading as well in order to mangle argv[0] when
invoking the shipped ELF interpreter directly, we must take care of
preloading the already preloaded libraries as well, to avoid invoked
programs losing their fakeroot capabilities.
Extend the bundle-libraries.sh script to take any existing $LD_PRELOAD
into account when invoking the target ELF executable with a preloaded
runas.so library.
This is in preparation for FreeBSD support, which I had hoped to have this
release, but we're still waiting on some tooling fixes, so hopefully next
wg(8) will support that. Either way, the code base is now a lot more amenable
to adding more kernel platform support.

make these constant time, even though we're never distinguishing between bits
of a secret using them. From that perspective, though, this is markedly better

signature verification and use a padded firmware file to flash OpenWrt:
* ssh into target device and run `cliclientd stopcs`
* upload factory image via web interface
The stopcs-method is supported from firmware version 2.3.0. Earlier
versions need to be upgraded to a newer stock version before flashing
OpenWrt.
Factory images for these devices are RSA signed by TP-Link. While the
signature verification can be disabled, the factory image still needs to
have a (fake) 1024 bit signature added to pass file checks.
Debricking instructions:
You can recover using u-boot via the serial port:

* Bridge R225 to connect TX, located inside can on back-side of board
* Serial port is 115200 baud, 8n1, interrupt u-boot by holding ctrl+B
* Upload initramfs with tftp and upgrade via OpenWrt
Device mac addresses:
Stock firmware has the same mac address for 2.4GHz wireless and
ethernet, 5GHz is incremented by one. The base mac address is stored in
the 'default-mac' partition (offset 0x90000) at an offset of 8 bytes.

TP-Link has introduced a compatibility level to prevent certain
downgrades. This information is stored in the soft-version partition,
changing the data length from 0xc to 0x10.
The compatibility level doesn't change frequently. For example, it has
the following values for the EAP245v3 (released 2018-Q4):
* FW v2.2.0 (2019-05-30): compat_level=0
* FW v2.3.0 (2019-07-31): compat_level=0
* FW v2.3.1 (2019-10-29): compat_level=1
* FW v2.20.0 (2020-04-23): compat_level=1
Empty flash values (0xffffffff) are interpreted as compat_level=0.
If a firmware upgrade file has a soft-version block without
compatibility level (data length < 0x10), this is also interpreted as
compat_level=0.
By including a high enough compatibility level in factory images, stock
firmware can be convinced to accept the image. A compatibility level
aware firmware will keep the original value.
Other firmware upgrades have been observed to modify the compabitility
stored level (e.g. TP-Link EAP225-Outdoor FWv1.4.1 to FWv1.7.0).
Therefore, it seems to be the safest option to set the OpenWrt
compatibility level to the highest known value instead of the highest
possible value (0xfffffffe), to ensure users do not get unexpectedly
refused firmware upgrades when using a device reverted back to stock.
To remain compatible with existing devices and not produce different
images, the image builder doesn't store a compatibility level if it is
zero.
To parse the ELF kernel loader, a small ELF parser is used that can
handle both ELF32 or ELF64 class loaders. The splitter assumes that the
kernel is always located before the rootfs, whether it is embedded in
the loader or not. If the kernel is located after the rootfs on the
firmware partition, then the rootfs splitter will include it in the
dynamically created rootfs_data partition and the kernel will be
corrupted.
The kernel image is preferably embedded inside the ELF loader, so the
end of the loader equals the end of the kernel partition. This is due to
the way mtd_find_rootfs_from searches for the the rootfs:
- if the kernel image is embedded in the loader, the appended rootfs may
follow the loader immediately, within the same erase block.
- if the kernel image is not embedded in the loader, but placed at some
offset behind the loader (OKLI-style loader), the rootfs must be
aligned to an erase-block after the loader and kernel image.
In case section header table is empty, determine the elf loader size by
finding the end of the last segment, as defined by the program header
table.
Currently the global variable PKG_FILE_MODES is used for all ipkg
creations. This works for Makefiles which output a single package, or
variants of a single package.
But if a Makefile outputs multiple packages that each contain different
files, setting PKG_FILE_MODES causes build failure when any of the files
in the variable do not exist in the folder that is currently being
packaged.
Example:
/openwrt/staging_dir/host/bin/fakeroot -l /openwrt/staging_dir/host/lib/libfakeroot.so -f /openwrt/staging_dir/host/bin/faked /openwrt/scripts/ipkg-build -m "/usr/lib/mariadb/plugin/auth_pam_tool_dir:root:376:0750" /openwrt/build_dir/target-mips_24kc_musl/mariadb-10.4.13/ipkg-mips_24kc/mariadb-server-plugin-disks /openwrt/bin/packages/mips_24kc/packages

This commit changes the file mode handling a bit. The file mode can now
be set either globally via PKG_FILE_MODES (no behavior change) or on a
per-package basis via FILE_MODES. This way specific file modes can be
used for any particular package.
This behavior is already used for other OpenWrt variables, hence it is
familiar:

PKG_SOURCE_SUBDIR vs SUBDIR

The Ed25519 key pairs are much shorter than RSA pairs and are supported
by default in OpenSSH. Looking at websites explaining how to create new
SSH keys, many suggest using Ed25519 rather than RSA, however consider
the former as not yet widely established. OpenWrt likely has a positive
influence on that development.
As enabling Ed25519 is a compile time option, it is currently not
possible to install the feature via `opkg` nor select that option in an
ImageBuilder.
Due to the size impact of **12kB** the option should only be enabled for
devices with `!SMALL_FLASH`.
This approach seems cleaner than splitting `dropbear` into two packages
like `dropbear` and `dropbear-ed25519`.

apm821xx: provide legacy interrupts for PCIe in DT
Devices with PCIe-Switches like the WNDR4700, MR24 and WNDAP660

for the legacy pci interrupt signaling method to work.
If the proper interrupt value is not specified, the default INTA
IRQ 12 is taken for all devices. This is especially bad, if the
device is setup to use INTC, because these interrupts will not
be serviced.
Russell Senior reported his experience on the MR24:
"The symptom is client devices can't see the beacons.
Wifi ifaces appear, can scan and hear other networks,
but clients can't see the MR24's SSIDs."
(The interrupts-property on the WNDAP620 was optional since it
uses INTA by default. Likewise the MX60W is in the same category)

config: add KERNEL_LSM symbol
The LSM (Linux security mechanism) list is the successor of the now
legacy *major LSM*. Instead of defining a single security mechanism the
LSM symbol is a comma separated list of mechanisms to load.
Until recently OpenWrt would only support DAC (Unix discretionary access
controls) which don't require an additional entry in the LSM list. With
the newly introduced SELinux support the LSM needs to be extended else
only a manual modified Kernel cmdline (`security=selinux`) would
activate SELinux.
As the default OpenWrt Kernel config sets DAC as default security
mechanism, SELinux is stripped from the LSM list, even if
`KERNEL_DEFAULT_SECURITY_SELINUX` is activated. To allow SELinux without
a modified cmdline this commit sets a specific LSM list if
`KERNEL_SECURITY_SELINUX` is enabled.
The upstream Kconfig adds even more mechanisms
(smack,selinux,tomoyo,apparmor), but until they're ported to OpenWrt,
these can be ignored.
To compile SELinux Kernel support but disable it from loading, the
already present options `KERNEL_SECURITY_SELINUX_DISABLE` or
`KERNEL_SECURITY_SELINUX_BOOTPARAM` (with custom cmdline `selinux=0`)

- Push and hold the reset button and release the power button. Continue
holding the reset button for 30 seconds or until it begins searching
for files on your TFTP server, whichever comes first.
- The router (10.10.10.128) will look for your computer at 10.10.10.254
and install the two files. Once it has finished installation, it will
automatically reboot and start up OpenWrt.
- Set your computer to use DHCP for its IP address
Notes:
- U-Boot environment can be modified, u-boot-env is preserved on initial
install or sysupgrade
- mtd-concat functionality is included, to leave a "hole" for u-boot-env,
combining the OEM kernel and rootfs partitions
I would like to thank @mpratt14 and @xabolcs for their help getting the
lzma loader to work!

ramips: lzma-loader: make FLASH_START configurable
FLASH_START is supposed to point at the memory area where NOR flash are
mapped. We currently have an incorrect FLASH_START copied from ar71xx
back then and the loader doesn't work under OKLI mode.
On ramips, mt7621 has it's flash mapped to 0x1fc00000 and other SoCs
uses 0x1c000000. This commit makes FLASH_START a configurable value to
handle both cases.
This target is still on kernel 4.14, and no attempt has been made to
update it to a newer kernel. Since we already are two LTS versions ahead
of that the target is dropped, as the chance of somebody bumping it will
only decrease with time.

This target is still on kernel 4.14, and recent attempts to move it to
kernel 5.4 have not led to success. The device tester reported that it
wouldn't boot with the following messages:
From sysupgrade:
Press any key within 4 seconds to enter setup....
loading kernel from nand... OK
setting up elf image... OK
jumping to kernel code
At this point the system hangs.
From CompactFlash:
Press any key within 4 seconds to enter setup....
Booting CF
Loading kernel... done
setting up elf image... kernel out of range kernel loading failed
The tester reported that the same was observed with current master
(kernel 4.14) as well. This looks like some kernel size restriction.
Since this target is quite old and only supports one device, and since
nobody else seemed interested in working on this for quite some time,
I decided to not put further work into analyzing the problem and drop
this together with the other 4.14-only targets.
This target still only works with kernel 4.14, and not so recent
attempts of getting newer kernel versions supported did not lead
to success. Therefore, drop the target, as we are already two
LTS kernel versions ahead and it does not seem like anybody will
pick up the work.
